Nicely composed and great color! I think I like this one better than the B&W, but it’s hard to decide. Maybe you could use the B&W and then just leave color on the yellow bike and the flowers. Of course, that would take a lot more work … me and my big suggestions hugh?
LOL – oh, well, I love that, Richard! Selective colouring may be a great idea for this image indeed. And who knows, maybe I will find time/inspiration to do it some time… Thank you for the suggestion, and for the kind comment! :)

For me, The coloured photo. I know that b & W. is good sometimes but I do love colour.
Yes and the bikes and canals remind me of a wonderful holiday I had when my dear husband took me to his home and family in Den Hague. Leon is the 6th child in 13. I certainly got the best deal. His family were wonderful to me but the man I married 53 years ago here in Oz is still the best in the world. We have 12 beautiful grandchildren out of four siblings.
Thanks for letting me know your preference, Rita! Great that this image brings back fond memories for you! And what a marvellous family you have!
